Box Score 1 | Box Score 2 HUNTSVILLE | The No. 9 University of Alabama in Huntsville softball team swept the opening day of the 2014 Charger Chillout at the Kiwanis Sportsplex in Huntsville, defeating Bellarmine 6-4 before rolling past Ohio Dominican by a 7-0 score in the nightcap.
 
UAH – who moved to 3-0 with the wins – will continue play at the event on Saturday when the team takes on Saint Edward's at noon before battling No. 7 Indianapolis at 2 p.m.
 
UAH 7, Ohio Dominican 0
 
In the second of the two games, the Chargers received a terrific pitching performance from freshman Emily Glover as the Scottsboro, Ala., native carried a no-hitter into the seventh inning before finishing the contest with a one-hit, complete game shutout. Glover faced just three batters over the minimum as she struck out five ODU batters while walking three.
 
The pitcher received all of the offensive support she would need in the first inning when Mary Kelley started a three-run frame with an RBI double that plated Macie Couey, and the team would cross the plate twice more in the inning when Kelley and Kaitlyn Bannister scored a pair of unearned runs when Rae Edenfield reached on a two-out error.
 
The game remained 3-0 in favor of UAH until the Chargers put a four-spot on the board in the bottom of the sixth to put the game sufficiently out of reach.
 
Couey and Kelley were terrific again from the third and fourth positions in the lineup, with both collecting a pair of hits to total half of the team's eight hits.
 
UAH 6, Bellarmine 4

The Chargers started off the first game of the weekend with a three-run first inning as Bannister drove in a run with an infield single that plated Victoria Frith, and that was followed up by Edenfield knocking in a pair of runs with a two-RBI single up the middle.
 
Behind some fantastic escape artistry, the Chargers would keep the 3-0 lead as freshman Taylor Doriety would strand three Bellarmine runners in the third and followed that up by leaving two on in both the fourth and fifth innings.
 
Earning her first collegiate win, Doriety tossed 5.2 solid innings while striking out six and scattering 10 hits.
 
In the UAH half of the fifth, Bannister would pick up another RBI as she recorded a sacrifice fly to make it 4-0, and after Bellarmine scored a run in the top frame of the sixth, Frith would pad the Charger advantage with a two-out, two-RBI single into right.
 
Frith recorded three of UAH's 10 hits and scored twice, and her fifth-inning RBI would prove to be vital as Bellarmine would score three times in the seventh to create the 6-4 final.
 
Kimberly Jack tossed the final 1.1 innings for the Chargers and earned her first save of the season as she entered the contest with UAH owning a three-run lead.
